A 37-year-old Australian player has reportedly reached an agreement with the Vilerbano ASVEL basketball team. Despite recent financial challenges facing the club, the veteran guard is anticipated to assume a leadership role within the organization’s new plans. This move follows a period where the Australian player gained significant international experience in European competition.
Last season, he played in Europe for the first time, representing the Tenerife “Lenovo” team alongside Rokas Giedraitis. During the FIBA Champions League (BCL), his path included facing the Vilnius “Rytas” team, a prominent Lithuanian squad. In the quarterfinals matchup, the guard contributed 7 points over 23 minutes of play, logging 1/3 dribbles, 1/5 three-pointers, and 2/2 free throws, resulting in 4 points of efficiency.
Across the entirety of the BCL campaign, the player established a solid statistical average, contributing 13 points, 2 assists, and 9 efficiency points per game. His commitment to the Vilerbano ASVEL team signals a continued presence in high-level European basketball. The acquisition is expected to bolster the roster and provide veteran leadership to the squad as they navigate their upcoming season.
